This Is Not Over Yet

Oh, my sweet Lucille How did you ever manage it? You don't know what any of this means? It means cancel all your parties Forget your big parade It means the crowds will not be cheering So despite what you've been hearing You can lay down your spade It means my mother can stop crying My rabbi's eulogy can wait It means that Dorsey can stop beaming And my cousin can stop dreaming Of his portion of my estate It means, no, this isn't over No, the date's not set No, I won't wake up tomorrow Drowning in my sweat It means I've got the greatest partner Any man can get It means I'll never ever, ever Underestimate that woman 'Cause this is not over yet Tell my uncle not to worry Tell the Reaper not to hurry Make the hangman stop his drumming 'Cause I'm coming into town to win the day Somehow I haven't, with my scheming Screwed things up beyond redeeming And we're finally on our way And no, this isn't over Hell, it's just begun Hail the resurrection of The South's least favourite son It means I made a vow for better Two is better than one It means the journey ahead might get shorter I might reach the end of my rope But suddenly, loud as a mortar There is hope Finally, hope! (Yes Leo, there is hope!) No, this isn't over! (No, this isn't over!) No, we aren't through (we are finally on our way) No, there's still a million things That you and I can do (I will speak for you Leo) And I would never have believed it The things I see in you It means a man who isn't guilty Doesn't have to walk the plank It means the gallows still are vacant And we've got my wife to thank It means you shouldn't underestimate Lucille and Leo Frank 'Cause this is not over yet!
